Issues installation of "Wolves of steel"

Hi folks,

I have an issue at the installation of the Mega Mod Pack Wolves of steel.
I tried to install the mod but during installtion, the exe crashes.
I haven`t seen such an issue in the Forum.
My Compurter runs on Win 10 but that couldn`t be the problem of the installation crashes.
Maybe someone of you had the same problem and can help me.

I have only one SSD inside my pc, so actually SH5 is installed on C:

The installer of TWos crashes directly after launching.

I really don't remember that anyone has reported anything similar...:hmmm: No idea mate...Can you try to extract the exe with winrar/winzip or 7zip?

I extracted it! :)
Do I just throw it in the Folder of SH5 and run the JSGME ?

Extract everything to your main Silent Hunter 5 folder (overwrite and replace) and continue from step 2 of install instructions. Install contained DirectX as well...

Still, I don't understand why you couldn't run self extracting archive...:hmmm: Joys of almighty "I'll do it for you" Widows 10? :D

Hi Vecko
Up until v2.0.3 which was temporarily blocked for 3 hours by AVG, previous updates since you changed to the installer I always got a warning which meant I had to select 'run anyway' and then change C: to D: as my next step.
The desktop shortcuts are a good idea and helpful for those with little computer knowledge.

W10 Defender won't let me open the TWoS.exe without me disabling it.
